Emma was standing on a cliff. There were people in front of her. A whole group. She realized that one of them was Jack. He was talking to a man. From what it looked like, they were telling jack to jump off from the great height they were standing on, into the water below. Jack refused. They were now arguing. A girl volunteers to jump but Jack is not letting her. One of the men: One with a big sword and a black beard asks the other zombie-looking-man to put bullets in two pistols but not to tell him which two. The zombie man does as he is told. Then black beard points the gun at the girl.
"You're not going to kill your own daughter are you, Blackbeard?"
The man was Blackbeard? The Blackbeard? As in Edward Teach? And that was his daughter?
"Angelica" Jack called her.
The zombie looking man, Quartermaster, takes out a doll. Emma gets shocked when she sees it. It was her doll! The little pirate doll. He throws it in the water, Jack screams. Angelica seems frustrated, she was about to jump when jack jumped in the water for her.
The Dream Changes.
Emma saw Angelica sitting all alone in a little deserted Island. Underneath a little shelter which she clearly made it herself. The little doll floats on land. She picks it up. Emma realizes that it was her doll. Angelica hugs the doll gently and smiles. "I really am with your child, Jack", she whispers.
The Dream Changes
Emma was standing on the Island where she was held with the others. Juno was in front of her. Emma wanted to run but couldn't move.
"You escaped, my sweet", she smiles
Emma remained silent.
Juno smiled once more. "Because I let you" She came closer to her and whispered in her ear
"You were on the island of Isla de Muerta", Juno disappeared suddenly. But the words kept ringing in Emma's ears.
Isla de Muerta
Isla de Muerta
Isla de Muerta
Isla de Muerta
Emma woke up with a sudden jerk. She could still hear Juno's voice in her ears as if she was sitting next to her. She looked around. Jack and Gibbs were still sleeping. Bottles of rum were all around the place. From the position of the sun, it looked like it was midday. Suddenly Emma remembered the events from last night. She drank. And a whole lot. She and the other two had danced till they collapsed. Emma rubbed her head. It ached badly.
She got up and looked in the bag of supplies what they could eat. She took out a few eggs, made a fire and cooked them up. In the meantime, Jack and Gibbs got up and cleaned the mess they had made last night. They ate in silence. Emma realized it wasn't only her head that hurt.
The rest of the day they talked. When it was time to eat, they ate. Before they knew it, it was night time. Nobody drank tonight, they still had their headaches.
"What type of bloody rum did William gave us?", Jack complained and lied down.
"You've never drank this much before. I mean four bottles, Jack", Emma answered
"What about you? You only drank one", Gibbs asked
"It was my first time", she replied.
The next morning came quickly. Today was the day Will had to come. The three waited impatiently. But Will didn't come. He had promised and he didn't. Jack started swearing at him and cursing him for it. The three were better now, they had no headaches anymore. But it was almost sundown and there was no sign of Will.
Then came the next morning. But still no Will
Then the next and the next.
They had no supplies left. Plenty of rum still, but nothing left to eat.
Jack was getting worried the most. Will was his only way to find his child but now, if Emma wasn't, what would he do? Starve to death? The Island they were in was cut off from the world. So they had no chance of getting out of there by asking a passing ship.
Emma watched as Jack sat and looked out into the sea.
"It's ok. He'll come", she tried to calm him down
"You want to know the real reason why I came on this voyage?"
"Yes?"
"Because, I came to look for my child"
Emma sat down with him and listened to his story. She wasn't interested at first but when she heard 'Angelica' she was completely alert. He told her how he lost her and how he had been searching for her child ever since. Emma, after listening to his story was certain that he was her father. She had the doll in her pocket and wanted to show it to him right away. She had found her father after all. But did he like her? Will he able to accept her as his own? Of course he would! She was his daughter! He had been looking for her for over 15 years! He was a devoted father, and he should be overjoyed to finally have found her. He must!
"Jack, I had a dream last night"
"What was it about?"
Emma told him what she saw. But she omitted the part about Juno. She didn't quite understand that yet. Jack listened to her with great attention and with every word his eyes grew wider. When she was finished she took out her doll and showed it to jack
Jack took it from her. He then put it in the water. Jack felt like someone had put him in water. He took the doll out.
"This is the voodoo doll that Blackbeard had made for me. So Angelica found it later?"
"Yes, she did. At least thats what i saw, in my dream". Emma said
"So you're my…"
"I think so"
"And I'm your…"
"Yes", Emma was glowing with happiness and so was Jack
Jack took her in his arms and hugged her tightly. She cried with joy. Gibbs, who was standing at a distance had seen the whole thing, was really happy for him.
Suddenly, Will's ship came into view. They waved to them, signaling them to come over in the little boat they had come on the Island before.
Jack was about to sit in it when Gibbs stopped him
"Jack, I have to ask, you found your daughter so you don't need to be with Will anymore. You don't need his help. We'll just ask him to drop you off at Tortuga. We'll find someone to take the Pearl out of the little bottle. Do you have to go?"
Jack didn't reply. Gibbs was right. He didn't need Will's help anymore.
He smiled at Gibbs "By my reckoning, if it wasn't for him, I never would've found her. She was on his ship. So, I still need to help him find her. Besides, what type of example would I be setting?", he pointed at Emma
As they went towards Will's ship, Jack smiled. For the first time in many years, everything had fallen into its place for him.
